Hi am I correct in my translations that this is ready mix cement?

Needed for some garden walls & external bits atm.

Yes it is readymix - just at water.
However unless you only need a small amount (a couple of bags) it is an expensive way to buy it

Just bought 3 of those ready mix bags (or similar) the other week, they were about HUF 3000 total, so not too bad I thought, if that's all you need. £3 a bag. Yesterday stuck in 3 nice '7-shaped' oszlop/ posts that we're going to grow 3 black grapes up (variety Nero, ready in August), with a wire framework. The boys did most of the work, I just got them straight.

All went smoothly and today they're rock solid, the secret is to mark out your holes with sticks, measure twice or thrice, go fairly deep but keep your hole tight (ooh-er Matron) then support them with a brick or stone until the next day (mine were top heavy as 7-shaped).
